[QUOTE="mrbb, post: 127843, member: 13825"] on my lx865, the belly pan only comes off in section, so even with all the sections off, it was not possible to get a new hose on, we tried that first, as didn;t want to tilt cab if not needed, I will admit that having machine cabs tilted, offered me a good chance to do a good inspection on many things you never get to see, and allowed me to also clean things way better, and as I stated, while it was tilted, I went ahead and replaced all the hoses under there as they were all 15+ yrs old as is, and had a very heavy wear groove in two hoses , from them rubbing each other, had I not lifted cab, I'd of never seen and I am pretty sure them two were really soon to leak, so dodged a bullet on them for sure, and they would have been NO fun to replace with cab up, HAHA! so for me, lifting the cab to fix the tank hose, was a gift of sorts, saving me from a near failure on them two hoses I also took apart parking brake set up cleaned and adjusted to like new lifting cab wasn't a terrible job, as long as you have another machine to life boom and cab and IMO< worth doing every once in a while as they yrs add up,, be surprised what you can find when you lift them, and the older machines, already have age concerns that looking at things can find!, a good PM once every few yrs IMO!(much sooner if its easy to do) and why I gather pretty much every newer model makes doing so easier, , you just find more problems before there problems and makes life easier to work on most things [/QUOTE]
